Answer 4

I agree with the woman who has the diabetic child. I am a Type I, diagnosed as a 4 year old decades ago. I too find that Splenda and other sugar substitutes do affect my blood sugar. Completely avoid anything labelled "low carb." They make it low carb by adding tons of sugar substitutes that may not affect carb count for non-diabetics, but do a terrible job on the blood sugar of a diabetic. Go for the real thing and just be sure to accomdate for the extra carbs and don't overeat. A helpful tip I found is that the higher in fat the cake is the less sugar it usually has. Therefore, my favorite choices are cheescakes from a good baker who knows a quality cheesecake does not need tons of sugar.

Have your cake and eat it too!



Cakes are fun desserts, simple to prepare and do not have exceptionally high amounts of added sugar. Most of the sugar is found in the icing or frosting. If you are counting carbohydrate grams, you'll find that a mere tablespoon of icing can have as many carbohydrates as a whole apple or a large bowl of strawberries. Alternate toppings for cakes which you might find pleasing include:

Fruit
"Lite" Whipped Topping
Cream Cheese Frosting
Glaze

These toppings are low in added sugar and fat and allow you to have your cake - and eat it too!
